What a historic election! Congrats to all candidates who ran #Midterms2018 — & exposed us to different perspectives, opinions, views, etc. What was really exciting, was how this election paved the way for a younger, more female & racially-diverse political generation! 🗣🗳🇺🇸

I stand with my sisters in the House of Representatives, and the Democratic Women’s Caucus in denouncing sexual harassment everywhere, especially in the State House. We need new leadership that includes women. #SenatorInSupportOfEquality #BelieverSurvivors

Rhode Islanders last hope of keeping the internet free and open without lapse hang on @GovRaimondo signing an Executive Order on #NetNeutrality. Call her now at 222-2080. There are only 10 days left for her to take action. Help us save the internet Gina!

NEW: Coventry police chief tells me state police had a "presence" at the home of RI Sen Nick Kettle around 6 this morning. He stopped short of calling it a raid. Unclear what it is about.
